Effect of pier shape and pier alignment on the equilibrium scour depth at single piers
International Journal of Sediment Research, 2016Abstract The equilibrium scour depth at uniform single bridge piers depends on a large number of variables, including the pier horizontal cross-section shape and its alignment angle towards the flow direction. The influence of these variables has been studied by only a few researchers, mostly, on the basis of tests that were far from approaching ...

Current Forces on a Large Pier Near an Existing Pier
23rd International Conference on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, Volume 1, Parts A and B, 2004A new suspension bridge is being built over the Tacoma Narrows, Washington. The bridge will be placed on a structure mounted on 2 large concrete caissons, which will be exposed to strong currents. The piers are of rectangular section with chamfered edges in the upper portion.

Querying the Internet with PIER
2003The database research community prides itself on scalable technologies. Yet database systems traditionally do not excel on one important scalability dimension: the degree of distribution. This limitation has hampered the impact of database technologies on massively distributed systems like the Internet.

Bulbous Pier: Alternative to Bridge Pier Extensions
2015Bridge deck splashing causes deterioration to the bridge structure and renders the bridge unsafe for motorist and pedestrians. The traditional countermeasure for bridge deck splashing is pier extension, the pier extension moves the pier wave away from the bridge deck, but retrofitting existing bridges with pier extensions is costly.

Interference of an Upstream Pier on Downstream Pier Scour
2017In this study, three kinds of pier arrangements were tested. They are (i) two piers in tandem, (ii) two piers in staggered arrangement, and (iii) three piers in symmetrically staggered arrangements. In the arrangement of two piers in tandem, the equilibrium scour depth at the downstream pier decreases with an increase in downstream distance up to ...
